Absolutely loving this book right now! Even more than the first one honestly! It’s so saaad but already so perfectly set up after that last book so now the characters are just getting to shine! And we’re seeing some characters on the up while we’re seeing others start to go down a concerning path so hopefully it’ll be a happy story for all in the end!

I kind of wish she just admitted she couldn’t be herself with him or that she ultimately felt Gabe was the one because her saying that he couldn’t love who she was but never giving him the chance to actually see wasn’t fair. I appreciate the idea that she’ll live happily ever after with Gabe, but definitely wish we could have seen more of that and how it would have worked with fam! They’ll make it! 2 🌟

I liked the idea of the plot and appreciated the plotline of the unexpected pregnancy and how when he eventually found out, how he reacted. I wish we had more time to see Molly and Gabe together but I do appreciate that after the last book and it’s messiness that Molly said I can’t do that again 😂 my one gripe is I feel like her reason for breaking up with the current boyfriend was weak….

Discovered this sequel and was excited to check it out despite not loving the first one. My big issue came down to whatever happened in the end with going back and forth between the boys so I thought this book would be her and Gabe’s second chance….. and it was…. The book just spent so much time focusing on the current boyfriend that toward the end of the book I was questioning who she was ending up with.

So while initially I would have given it 4 stars, it just got too lost in it and I will be giving it a 3 unfortunately.i had fun reading it, but I think I’ll let someone else find my physically copy and read it themselves! So thanks for the fun concept and we’ll see about checking out any more books by this author! Go me for getting this done in August like I wanted to!

Initially, but then it just got to a point where Molly was lost in the sauce and we felt like we were getting so far away and backtracking on the plot at the same time. And what was that ending??? I mean the ending made sense, her leaving, but no epilogue?? Does she get back together with Gabe?? Does she even deserve to?? Like Patrick, I lost respect for him, but Gabe…. In the end I believed in him and his love.

I really liked this book initially, but it took a strange turn! I was loving Molly getting to know Gabe and Gabe being her night in shining armor, defending her against his own family and all! But then what the heck started happening with Patrick??? The book just got to a point where the whole thing felt confused and it went on for way too long. I was enjoying the ease of each day and seeing where each day would lead

What can I say except I loved her? 🤧 this book was amazing! It really gave watching two people fall in love and what a beautiful thing. I love Johnny and Shannon together and can’t wait to see them in the next book as they really get together! I ate this book up and am looking foward to reading the rest of the series! 5 shining stars 🌟

Surprised with how much I’m enjoying this one! You know, I don’t know what it is, but sit me down and tell me I’m reading a book where I follow someone through every day of their life, and I eat it up 😂 it doesn’t make much sense how much I love some random persons day to day. But I’m enjoying the characters too and excited to see her summer unfold more!

Don’t ask me why I was fighting tooth and nail to finish this book, but here we are! 😂 I really enjoyed the conclusion to this book! Seeing all the characters from the previous books come back and get wrapped up was nice and for this being the end of the series it felt like the appropriate wrap up. I’m giving it 5 stars. I’m between a 4.5 and 5 but just going to round up.

I’ve fallen in love with this book! It’s a brick of a book that is taking me forever to read 😭 but Johnny and Shannon are the sweetest, absolutely adore them! And I love Gibsie 😭 I haven’t looked up who the books are about yet, but it said Gibsies number earlier so I know he’s not next, and I’m gutted about that 😂 I can’t wait to continue reading 🥰

And then she hadn’t slept with another man in 14 years. She was engaged to be married to a whole ass separate man and she goes and cheats on him with her first love which she lies about seeing in the first place! Didn’t work for me! This felt like a whole ass thing that could have been solved with proper communication. Last chapter was good and what their story was doing for her, but their story sucked lmao. 2.5!

You’re telling me they have this summer, fall in love and all that, when they’re 18, then get separated at the end of the summer, right? No calls, no letters for 14 years, then they find their way back to each other before she marries another man and they just fall back in love in 2 days like her other man didn’t mean shit to her??? If they loved each other that much why didn’t they find each other before???

I thought I had read this book before, but apparently not, so here we are! I hated it! No forreal though, I did not like this book 😂 I liked the last chapter, how him telling her their story helped her Alzheimer’s and that whole thing was beautiful, but their story itself?? Sucked! 😂 lmao, maybe it’s my fault because I haven’t seen the movie in years, but that’s really not how I remember it going.

I’m enjoying reading this book! It’s absolutely hilarious and as much as I hear there’s little or no spice in this book we sure do talk about this man’s parts a lot 😳 I know they’re injured, but it’s more descriptive than I was expecting 🥲 anyways, I am for sure looking forward to Johnny and Shannon getting to know each other! This is a chunky book and very descriptive, so wish me luck lmao

The back half of this book really fell off for me. I was so into the development in the first half and then it just dropped off and I’m not sure why. I don’t know, I just wanted more of the characters I think that never came. The premise was sweet, it just didn’t pay off. So 3 stars, but I will check out more by this author with an open mind!

It’s funny I said at the last update I felt it was going slow, because all of a sudden things happened and it felt so fast 😂😂 yeah, this book isn’t quite panning out the way I thought it would… it’s okay though, it was fun reading another seasonal read! Trying to find some enjoyment from this miserably hot summer! But anyways!

I thought this would be a nice book to end summer off on and I like it, but at the same time
I am surprised I’m halfway through. The back and forth timeline is fun, I guess I just feel the plot is starting to go a little slow. I am enjoying the writing and am looking forward to checking out more books by this author regardless of how this one turns out for sure though!

So 4 stars and I’m not sure which one I’ll check out next! Maybe Scarred, but we’ll see! I feel better that I’m getting back on track with my reading goal because for a few weeks there, I was getting stressed 😂 but anyways! My only complaint about the book is the handling of Aiden. I don’t know…. I wish he would have stayed sweet and didn’t have to shift the way he did, but I did see it coming tbh.

This book was fun! It wasn’t perfect, definitely not as good as Hexed, but I’m enjoying this series and one of my coworkers saw me reading this book and gave their thumbs up for the series so I feel encouraged to continue! Julian grew on me! Would I want him for a husband? Not necessarily, but he wasn’t evil 😂 and Yasmin grew on me too, not my favorite girl, but a strong woman at the end of the day we love!

It’s her whispering little insults at him: “You make me sick.” And “You look like a skeevy predator.” For me 😂 lmao. Very Elf! Julian is not Enzo from Hexed, but I am enjoying the plot! The characters themselves are a little meh for me right now, but I’m willing to wait this one out! It’s the first other book from the series that I’m enjoying (and the other I bought paperback) so we’re rolling!

I really enjoyed this book! I didn’t expect much from the book with the cute ass name tbh. I thought it would be a cute romance, which it was, but it also had depth and spice and was very nice to read! I loved the small town vibes and how Archer stepped up to be a father and how Iris fell in love without even meaning to <3 it was a very sweet read and I look forward to the rest of the series! 4 bright stars 🌟

Overall, just a sweet read. Middle of the road 3 star. Parts of the book were meh, but it didn’t drag too much, I can’t complain. To be fair, it was a more fairytale ending to teen pregnancy, that part I didn’t feel was totally realistic. The thing I always appreciated about 16 and pregnant is that by the end they show that it’s not easy but that didn’t quite happen in the book, but other than that.

I needed a win after struggling with my reading so much so I thought a YA would be cute. This book was sweet. A 17 year old girl falls pregnant after a one night stand and considering her mom was a teen mom it was nice seeing her mom not freak out and able to support her the way she was. Also loved Leaf (sp?) it was sweet how he came along and supported our girl even though the baby wasn’t his responsibility.

This is an uncharacteristically late DNF for me and tbh I was really trying to see it through. I didn’t actually want to dnf this book because I’ve listened to so much of it as this point that it should count toward my total 😭 I was enjoying the plot of the book and wanted to see what happened to the boys but I just couldn’t listen to them have sex one more time. It was too much…..

Of all the books to pull me out of my panic…. This one?? This one? 😂 called the strawberry patch pancake house??? You’re kidding! Well sometimes you find books you really enjoy in the funniest of places and the first book to finally hold my attention has been this one so we are rolling with it! It’s a cute book so far! I’m enjoying the suddenly single dad and live in nanny! Excited to see where it goes :)

I don’t hate this book…. It’s just that I’ve realized what kind of book this is 😂 it’s not plotless, it’s just that the plot for sure comes second 😂 and I’m not into how grumpy Kyran is. Like I’m sure he has shit that has gone down in his life, but I feel like he’s just taking it out on everyone around him. I don’t want to DNF 2 books in a row, they were anticipated! But we’ll see.

This book didn’t do it for me! I gave it 4 hours, just over a quarter way through and I just am not feeling it. I’m not into the plot, I’m not into the characters, I was excited about this one, but it’s just not doing it for me. Going to DNF because I just don’t see it getting better! Plus I just feel like if I have to give your book that long to get good, it’s just not for me, and that’s okay!

Why is Kyran so grumpy??? Like what did anyone ever do to him? 😭 Avi is so sweet, like he signed up to be the mascot for the college football team and he’s just out here vibing, why did Kyran run up on him when he realized Avi was the mascot and borderline attack him??? Like damn, what did this sweet boy do to you? 😂

This book had me gripped from beginning to end and I can’t wait to read more by this author and from this series! 5 stars for sure! I haven’t felt this way about a romance the whole year and to feel so giddy and butterflies in my stomach was absolutely everything. I need books like this to remind me sometimes that good love exists out there for someone ❤️
